    we played this for my last band concert of my senior year and something about it brought up so many strong emotions that i started choking back tears towards the end. it gives me a sense of leaving everything in high school behind and that feeling of melancholy but also being excited for the future. i’m kind of an emotional wreck just thinking about it.

    This was one of the final pieces I played in middle school before covid shut everything down. Not only is this piece extremely special to me because of that, but it's also truly one of the most beautiful compositions I've ever played. There will never be a time where I listen to this piece and tears Don't form in my eyes

    Practicing this piece in band right now, and i have got to say it’s one of my favourite pieces bc of how beautiful it is. I’ve also got to say, part C on the clarinet is a pain in the ass.

    Everytime I listen to this, I think of a family of field mice that notice a darkness spreading through their world, therefore they have to travel to the light at the edge of a forest (why it's called chasing sunlight)

    Everyone here has amazing stories of playing this song but all I can think about when I hear it is how our conductor had to stop and restart in the middle because our soloist forgot to play..... it was a rough one for us lollll
